EVERCROSS EV10Z Electric Scooter Review

EVERCROSS EV10Z Electric Scooter Review

Introduction

Electric scooters have been gaining popularity in the last few years and the market has grown large enough to provide dozens of purchasing options to riders. Electric scooters are a cheaper alternative for people who live in cities and don’t have space for a car. In this article, we are going to be reviewing the EVERCROSS EV10Z electric scooter.
 

In making this review we considered everything from the EV10Z’s speed and power to the build quality and safety, ensuring that no stone was left unturned. Continue reading to find out more information on the EV10Z to determine if it is one of the best-rated electric scooters for you.

 

Speed and Acceleration

The EV10Z has a 500W motor as well as a high performance controller so it makes for a zippy ride. With a max speed of 19 MPH, the EV10Z has a decent pace for scooters in this price range.

 

A lot of riders note that the EV10Z can keep chugging along even as the battery reaches 20% or lower. Many other electric scooters will simply lose power and only be able to reach a speed of a few miles per hour when the battery reaches levels that low.The acceleration on this scooter is decent if you start moving on flat ground. The EV10Z can handle inclines of up to 15%-20% without losing power for riders around 150 lbs, but heavier riders may notice some lag if they start accelerating while on a hill.

Battery and Range

The EV10Z has a standard battery for scooters. It has a 36V 11.4Ah battery that can provide a range of 20-22 miles. This is a perfect distance for those with short or medium length commutes, or for riders who just want to take leisurely journeys. The battery does take 6-8 hours to charge, so you’ll have to charge it overnight while you sleep.

 

Suspension and Build Quality

The EV10Z has two suspension systems in both the front and the rear. The front suspension system is a spring shock absorber that lays in the steering column – a standard feature for most scooters at this price. The rear system is a twin hydraulic suspension system that promises to take the oomph out of most bumps you encounter.

Both tires in the EV10Z are 10 inches in diameter. The tire is solid rubber and is more susceptible to the shock that comes from riding over bumps and crevices. The rear hydraulic suspension system should be able to displace the shock somewhat, but many riders still feel as though it can make for a bumpy ride. It may not be perfect, but for its price, it’s still got a pretty decent suspension system all around.

 

Portability

Compared to other scooters with a similar price and specs, the EV10Z is of standard weight. At 36 pounds, the EV10Z isn’t the lightest scooter, but it’s definitely more portable than a lot of other competitors. If you want something lighter than 35 pounds you will likely have to sacrifice speed, range, and power to gain more portability.

The EV10Z folds at the deck so it’s not very tall when it’s completely folded up. Additionally, the handlebar folds inwards so the scooter can fit in more narrow spaces. It can easily fit on a bus or the trunk of a car without being cumbersome.
 

Who Should Buy the EV10Z?

This electric scooter is a great choice for commuters and leisure riders, new or experienced. It comes at a competitive price and can handle most journeys with ease which makes it fun and effective to ride. The EV10Z is an all-around well-built scooter, we’d recommend for all riders looking to get an electric scooter with these features.
